Description

This video covers the 1980 Cadillac Seville's controversial bustle-back trunk, Frank Sinatra's one dollar Chrysler Imperial, the redesigned Camaro Z/28, the Firebird Trans Am that became KITT on Knight Rider, Ford's game-changing Thunderbird, the Lincoln Mark VII that rewrote federal headlight law, the notorious Pontiac Fiero, and the all-new Corvette C4. Every one of them looks stunning. Almost every one hid a real engineering compromise underneath. #VintageCars #RetroCars #80sCars #ClassicAmericanCars
